Postprandial incremental BG for the duration of the study was reduced in study B vs. study A with AUC((-60 to 300 min)) (area under the curve) at 6600 +/- 2371 vs. 20 230 +/- 3126 mg/dL/min (367 +/- 132 vs. 1124 +/- 174 mmol/L/min) (p < 0.001).

Eight adolescents with T1DM on intensive insulin therapy participated in an open-label, non-randomized, crossover study, comparing postprandial glucose excursions in study A (prescribed insulin regimen and given premeal) vs. study B (pramlintide + insulin).
Prandial insulin dose for study B was decreased by 20% and given postmeal, while pramlintide was given just before the meal.
In this study, Pramlintide (Symlin) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Pramlintide (Symlin).
